Chapter 207 I wish Sister Chu cared about me this much

Sheng Nianyao was not amused by Chu Yian's appearance, but Xiaofu really couldn't help laughing.

But seeing that Sheng Nianyao seemed to be still a little angry, Chu Yian couldn't laugh either, so he quickly held back his laughter.

Sheng Nianyao finally calmed down a little and said leisurely, "What are you talking about, Sister Chu? Of course you are not that kind of person."

"I just want to know when Sister Chu and that girl met."

"Sister Chu isn't even willing to tell me this?"

Chu Yian took a deep breath, let go of Sheng Nianyao's sleeve, and held her hand instead.

The smile on his lips gradually changed from bitter to gentle, and even his eyes became soft.

Chu Yian coaxed softly, "How could I not want to tell you? We just met by chance before we got married."

Sheng Nianyao didn't expect that she would come here suddenly. Feeling the warmth in her hands and looking at the beautiful face so close to her, her heart began to beat wildly uncontrollably.

Even her face turned a little red, and she looked more shy.

Pulling her hand back tremblingly, Sheng Nianyao turned her head away to hide the panic that was about to overflow from her eyes.

But she was still unforgiving: "Yuan, Yuan knew me earlier than me, no wonder Sister Chu didn't come to play with me, but went to play with her."

Chu Yian: ...

Chu Yian reached out and pinched Sheng Nianyao's chin and turned her head.

Facing her eyes that dared not look directly at her, Chu Yian curved his eyes, chuckled, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I have seen you once, and I haven't seen you since then. It was just a chance encounter today."

"I've been busy these past few days. Qin Sheng is about to go to war. He's busy with his own affairs. Don't let your imagination run wild."

Sheng Nianyao's face turned even redder. She turned her head away, not daring to look into Chu Yian's eyes. She moved her feet a little further away from Chu Yian: "Chu, Sister Chu, you are either busy with other women or busy with the young general..."

She felt like her brain was turning into a mess and she had no idea what she was saying.

Sheng Nianyao subconsciously felt that Chu Yian was always busy with others and didn't come to see her, which made her feel unhappy, but she knew that it was only natural for Chu Yian to be busy for Qin Sheng.

They are husband and wife, and she is an outsider.

The words just came out of my mouth and I couldn't control them.

Sheng Nianyao carefully turned her head to look at Chu Yian, and when she met Chu Yian's eyes that seemed to understand everything, she quickly lowered her head.

Sister Chu today... is so strange.

She looked gentler, more affectionate, and more...heart-warming than before.

Sheng Nianyao clearly realized that her thoughts were becoming more and more dangerous.

I quickly shook my head to get rid of all those messy thoughts.

But she didn't forget to add a few more words: "Sister Chu is so sweet, no wonder she and the young general are so affectionate."

Chu Yian: ...

Isn’t this girl jealous yet?

They all started to attack indiscriminately.

And when did she and Qin Sheng become affectionate?

Chu Yian opened his mouth to say something, but Sheng Nianyao came to her senses and obviously realized how inappropriate her words were.

Blushing, she quickly changed the subject: "Sister Chu, what happened just now?"

She looked at the direction where the crowd was going away.

Chu Yian also looked over and briefly explained what had just happened.

Sheng Nianyao's thoughts were completely collected, her brows furrowed instantly, she pursed her lips and asked, "Shall we go over and take a look?"

"Don't be a kidnapper."

"If he really is a kidnapper, we can try to get the prefect to impose a heavier sentence."

Chu Yian remained silent, as she still trusted the official rank of Lord Zhang, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture.

The last kidnapper who robbed people on the street was exiled three thousand miles away. If this one is also a kidnapper, he will definitely not be given a light sentence.

Just looking at Sheng Nianyao's indignant and righteous look, he didn't say anything. He nodded lightly and said, "Okay, let's go and take a look."

Chu Yian looked at Xiaofu, pointed at the coachman, asked her to make some arrangements, and then walked to Shuntian Mansion with Sheng Nianyao.

This place is not far from Shuntian Prefecture, just one stick of incense away.

By then, the gate of the mansion had been opened and the hall had been raised. The couple who had just robbed the person were forced to kneel in the hall.

Chu Yian and Sheng Nianyao found a corner and stood there, listening attentively to what was being said inside.

As soon as I arrived, I heard the couple crying and complaining about how difficult it was for them to raise their daughter, and how the daughter they raised with so much effort was going to run away with someone else.

They could have taken her back immediately, but so many people stopped them from taking their daughter away.

If my daughter ran away, the group of people who brought them here would bear a great responsibility.

Mr. Zhang sat upstairs without saying a word, just listening quietly.

I don't know if I listened to what these two people said.

After a long while, the couple finished crying and the person who brought them here spoke.

"Sir, I'm afraid they are kidnappers, so I brought them here to verify."

"After all, this kind of thing has happened a lot. Not long ago, a girl was almost abducted."

"It's better to be careful. Even if I really wronged them, they should thank me."

"After all, if they really meet a kidnapper, their daughter will never come back. I am doing this for the stability of Shengjing."

Upon hearing this, the couple immediately became angry: "What kind of bullshit is this? I was about to take my daughter home, but now she's run away. Where are you going to ask us to find her?"

"I don't care. All of you are responsible. If you can't find it, you must pay compensation."

"Is it easy for me to raise my daughter to this age? Do you know how much money she cost me and how much food she ate?"

"Either you send the man back, or you pay me fifty taels of silver. It's your choice."

"Please, sir, make the decision for us!!"

Chu Yian frowned even more tightly.

Looking at the couple's fearless look, for a moment I felt that they didn't really seem to be lying.

But if they were not lying, and the girl just now was indeed their child, it only meant that she was not valued or cared for at all in this family.

After all, no parents who care about their children would openly say in public that their daughter is going to elope with a strange man.

In this era, a woman’s reputation is more important than her life, and even concerns the reputation of a family.

If they spread the news to everyone, wouldn't that force the girl to die?

Rather than meeting such parents, Chu Yian would rather hope that these two are really kidnappers.

At least the girl still has other family members, so she doesn't have no place to stay in such a big world.

Sheng Nianyao turned her head to look at Chu Yian, and as soon as she saw her expression, she knew that Chu Yian was probably thinking about that girl again.

She had a heart attack and felt sad.

Sister Chu is always so kind. She was like this when she met Bai Xiaozhu before, and she is still like this now when she meets someone who she probably can’t even see clearly what he looks like.

I wish she could care about her this much.

Sheng Nianyao lowered her head in disappointment, feeling extremely sad.

Chu Yian seemed to notice her mood change and poked her with his hand.

Sheng Nianyao turned her head to look, and Chu Yian looked at her and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

She quickly shook her head and suppressed those sour thoughts.

Isn’t Sister Chu always like this?

If not for this, I'm afraid I wouldn't have saved her.

It was because Sister Chu was kind-hearted that she rescued her from the brothel.

Since he could save her, why couldn't he save other women?

They are all people who need help. Since Sister Chu has encountered them, she can't just stand by and watch, right?

If she really watched from the sidelines, then she would not be the Sister Chu that attracted her so much.

After figuring this out, Sheng Nianyao felt a little better.

She reached out and held Chu Yian's arm.

Chu Yian just glanced at her, and when he found that the girl seemed to be in a better mood, he turned his attention back to the court.
